One of the nurses I work with came to CT today and I looked and said, "my you have lost weight!" She had lost 50 lbs in 6 mo. I asked her how she did it. She said. "prayer and fasting." She only eats liquids during the day and after 3 pm she will break her fast. She is a vegetarian and she does not drink any soda, or eat any sweets. I believe she said, no bread either. Mind you, I am not saying her food habits are the way to go, what impressed me is how she stressed the prayer and fasting. She asked me to encourage her daughter who also works here. This woman put me to shame. I need to pray more. The fasting I am not so sure about for me. I get quite riled up when I am hungry. Just thought I would share another woman's journey with you. I have another friend here who has lost 16lbs in 3 weeks. She is doing "the biggest loser" thingy. They look great!!!!!! Onward Christian Soldiers!!!!!
